Hilary + Clay’s boho inspired wedding day in the green mountains of Vermont was so perfectly fitting for them. Every little detail, every little thing just felt so very “them.” These two adventurous souls have traveled the world together and have made so many friendships as a result. They’re the kind of people who radiate positivity (can you tell that just being around Hilary makes you happier? BEST smile award) and make everyone feel completely loved and welcome. And you could feel just how much they are loved in RETURN through the smiling faces of everyone who traveled to be there with them for their destination wedding weekend in Stowe, Vermont.

Where do we begin? We received our first email from Georgia Mae + Tyler on May 19, 2017. Almost TWO years ago. We can still remember reading the sweet words they shared with us in that first email about having a story that was near + dear to their hearts.

Georgia Mae shared how she had always prayed that her future husband would get to meet her dad, the most special man in her life...but, sadly, Georgia’s father passed away before she + Tyler had ever met. She shared that it was difficult for her to come to terms with the fact that her dad was never going to get to meet the man she was going to marry + build a life with. And that her future husband would never get to meet her dad. Except, God works in the craziest ways + little did she know that He had plans for the two of them to meet, after all.

Six weeks prior to their wedding day, we received a message in our inbox on Instagram from one of our favorite New England wedding photographers, Amanda Fogarty. She described a situation to us of some of her best friends + a wedding celebration that was being planned for them two weeks out from that very day.

Amanda explained Danielle + Richard's 17 year relationship to us...their love for one another...their three little boys...+ the challenges they have been faced with in the past year since Richard's stage 4 colon cancer diagnosis in September 2016. She ended her message by asking us if we would be interested in traveling, on such short notice, all the way to Maine to film their wedding day in just a few, short weeks.
